An introduction to numerical methods for solving the transport equations for flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid, including convective heat transfer. The finite volume methodology is adopted. Students will implement numerical solutions for simple problems involving diffusion and convection. Additional topics include pressure solvers, turbulence modeling and Large Eddy Simulation. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hoursPrerequisite(s): ME 872.3 or equivalent.
